Acolyte was pretty bad for the few games we saw it during the map test tournament with the pocket base being really easy to harass for terran (I wonder if they moved the gas out of range), and being really turtly overall. And Frost...

Those 2v2 maps are just bizarre. I like the new 3v3 and 4v4 ones though, Blizzard has really come into their own making team maps.

nooo stop it with Frost... Please just put deadwing in!!! also take out Abbyssal its been in there forever =_____= please blizzard either a new map or something like Terraform/Coda but not Abbysal and Frost thats just boring now.. But apart from that these maps do look interesting.. Im glad Proxima, Sequencer, Bloodboil and Defenders is finally gone. I really would like to see that Deadwing a map that more than deserves to be on, and Coda/Terraform two other beautiful maps make it over Abbyssal and Frost
Maru is the best Terran ever.

Well they're reconsidering Frost at least: https://us.battle.net/forums/en/sc2/topic/20757507160. They'll likely pick an old map (since they probably don't have time to process a new one), so I hope they pick one of the few that are actually suitable for LotV.

Instead of dragging the name of maps that used to be good through the mud, maybe they should try to redeem old maps that were bad in HotS or WoL, but might be better in LotV.

Since Protoss has pylon overcharge now, they can obviously deal with the original Daedalus Point's ramp now, right?

They don't have a "mapping team." They have a design team that does a number of things, one of them being mapmaking. Who exactly? Nobody that we know of, or can't know about.

There's no real benefit for a designer to put themselves out there and in the line of fire after all.

No, there's no real purpose for them to. They hunt down community maps these days and they will simply change some of the features if they feel they need to. For example, Mech Depot had one of its repair stations removed to keep the area by the watch tower more open.

Basically every HotS/WoL map that's been played in LotV has been understandably worse due to the fact that they weren't designed with liberators and LotV economy in mind. Maybe Echo is about as good. But all the others range from slightly worse like King Sejong to much much worse like Bel'shir Vestige.

The later HotS maps are obviously more LotV appropriate because we started moving towards closer third bases and thus fourths, etc. The unwritten rules were figured out spare some rarities (like Secret Spring..)

I would rather we completely stop this "bring back old maps" thing.

OVERGROWTH BLIZZARD. OVERGROWTH FFS. Odyssey and ascension to Aiur are basically the same map, replace one with OVERGROWTH.
p.s. wake me up, am i dreaming? After all these years of imbecile mappools we have a decent one? at last? was it worth?

p.s.s.: protoss in unplayable in both MUs, blizzard. Hello!
